The renovation plan was prepared about four years ago when I was freshly elected an MP. It gives me great work that the work started today and will be completed by December 2024.""I have made another request to the Railways that the trains which go to the north-east side through Jhansi, should pass through Gwalior via Etawah to Prayagraj. If the idea is implemented, it will come as a big present for the people of Gwalior. There are many other issues about which I will talk to Prime Minister Modi," he added.The general manager of Jhansi Railway Division, Satish Kumar, said, "I was posted in Gwalior in 1991. Now this station will become a grand one and the makeover will be completed by December 2024. It will be a great achievement. We inspected this area some time back and an announcement has been made to connect Etawah and Gwalior. Permission has been received from the Railway Board and construction work is ongoing. A passenger train will be started from Gwalior to Etawah in Uttar Pradesh within 15 days and it will have stops at all stations on the route."The Gwalior railway station was established in the year 1878 by the Scindia dynasty. After this, the Scindia royal family renovated the railway station, giving it a heritage look in 1940.
